ABOUT
I’m Paulo Sampaio, a creative retoucher with over 14 years of experience in creative image retouching and post-production. My work focuses on delivering premium image retouching services for advertising agencies, photographers, brands & creative studios worldwide.
With a background in Graphic Design from FUMEC (Belo Horizonte, Brazil), I developed a strong foundation in visual communication, color theory, photography, typography, and brand design. This multidisciplinary approach allows me to understand both the creative and strategic aspects of each project, delivering refined, precise, and visually consistent results.
At PS Retoucher, I specialize in advertising image retouching and CGI post-production, collaborating across various industries, including automotive, fashion & beauty, still life, food & beverage, architecture, and commercial photography. My work is grounded in a strong technical background in color correction, photo montage and visual aesthetics. I focus on non-destructive editing techniques, texture preservation, advanced compositing and accurate color grading, adapting the workflow to the needs of each project. I work with a professional and reliable mindset, comfortably handling demanding production schedules while delivering imagery that supports brand narratives and creative concepts.
Based in Lisbon and working remotely with clients worldwide, PS Retoucher provides professional image retouching services for advertising, fashion and commercial photography.
